Classic Style

Earlier this week I purchased a Gloverall Classic Duffle Coat for the Mini Fashionista. I had been "watching" it on ebay for a while, and I finally decided to make an offer, and it was accepted! So this navy little beauty (made for the J Crew Crewcuts line) is currently on its way to my doorstep. I am hoping to find her a cute pair of rain boots to pair with it, some pink Hunter boots are at the top of my list, but I'm having a hard time with the $50 pricetag.


For those of you not familiar with Gloverall, here is a little history. Gloverall was founded in England in 1950 by Freda and Harold Morris. The name was conceived from the words gloves and overalls. In 1954 with the help of Harold's father, a master bespoke tailor, they produced their first Duffle Coat. Gloverall of London were the first clothiers to make the traditional military and navy Duffle Coats available to civilians. Today their line of coats expands beyond just men to women and children. 

Now that the Mini Fashionista has a Gloverall Duffle, I think I might be in need of one too. Here are the three styles that I have my eyes on. 





Don't you think the Mini Fashionista and I BOTH need a Duffle Coat?

Red Carpet Debut

Not only will Katie be walking down the aisel in August, but the Mini Fashionista will be walking down the aisle for her first time as a flower girl. Let's think of it as her red carpet debut. This is MAJOR! 

The wedding color palette includes kelly green, navy, white and gold accents. When I saw this dress I knew it would be perfect for the event as the bridesmaid dresses are also green! Unfortunately the dress doesn't come in the Mini Fashionista's size. FAIL! 

Brooks Brothers Oxford Gingham Dress

So we are back to the drawing board. Here are a few of the cute dresses from J Crew that are currently in consideration.




And these shoes....so many cute choices. Too bad they don't make them small enough! Another FAIL! 






Seriously this stuff is fabulous! Speaking of fabulous, have you entered the History + Industry giveaway?
